My view on lovey-duvey stuff has changed throughout the years. When I was in high school and “everyone else” had a boyfriend, I got annoyed with PDA.Then I got to college, made new friends, met a nice boy, and found PDA not quite so awful. ;)Now that I’m happily married with two kids of my own, you couldn’t stop me from hugging and kissing on them and my sweet hubby.

Time has also taught me though that being lovey-duvey is more than just a line from a Steve Miller Band song, and it’s more than PDA.

It’s thoughtful surprises…My husband’s favorite cookies brought home from the grocery store.Laundry done before my hubby even runs out of workshirts or underwear.Remembering a comment from March and turning it into a birthday present in July.Getting all the garbage and recycle taken out before my hubby even gets home from work. (instead of just piling it by the door!)Arby’s waiting in the car after I pick up my son from preschool.Handmade clothes, toys and presents.

And special moments…The “roll-over” game.Butterfly kisses.Songs.After bathtime.Dancing “the way Poppa did”.Playing Candy Land AGAIN.Sharing the green chair by the fire.

That's so true, it's everything we do that shows love. My hubby would like the one you mentioned about having work shirts and underoos clean before he runs out. Maybe I should work a little harder on that one. LOL.

I used to rool my eyes whenever my parents would kiss or hug in front of us (much like my chidlren do now when my hubby and I do the same thing) but I'm so glad they still did it because we knew they loved each other.
